Leveraging Investment for Family Planning Equity (LIFE) – FP2030 commitments

Although Ghana has made commitments under FP2030 to expand access to FP, the sector continues to face inadequate resource allocation, and limited domestic financing. Heavy dependence on donor funding undermines sustainability, while inequities in access persist, particularly among rural, low-income, and marginalized populations.

Low financial commitment in the national budget for FP jeopardizes progress towards universal access to voluntary, affordable, and equitable FP services, putting Ghana at risk of not fully achieving its FP2030 targets. PPAG’s contribution to achieving domestic financing for FP in Ghana sits under this commitment.

PPAG will adopt the leading from behind strategy in this implementation. Engagements will be led through collaborations with the Ghana Health Service Family Health Division, while PPAG provides the necessary technical and financial support.

This project, through collaborations with the Ghana Health Service, seeks to address the above challenge by engaging various private institutions, including pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, and high-earning sectors like banking, mining, and telecommunication, to commit to financing FP commodities through their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.
